The Blaze with Lizzie and Kat! The Original Beverly Hills 90210 Podcast

We're very grateful that Kat is joined this week by our friend Anna to discuss the season five episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 in which Dylan's substance abuse is confronted with a staged intervention and catastrophic consequences.

This episode features a frank discussion about mental health, addiction, and chemical dependency, and may be difficult for some listeners. The examples discussed in this interview are solely representative of the individuals speaking, and should not be generalized to apply to the vast diversity of lived experiences. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, a resource for local support groups can be found at tinyurl.com/90210help.

Discussed in this episode:

• "Mackenzie Phillips," People (1994); Breathe Life Healing Centers
• Substance Use and Abuse: Cultural and Historical Perspectives, Russil Durrant, Jo Thakker (2003)
• Alcoholics Anonymous a.k.a. "The Big Book" (4th edition, 2003)
• Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far on Foot and One Day at a Time—both featuring friend of the podcast Santina Muha!

It's so exciting for us to finally be joined by Beth and Amy, the sisters behind longtime supporter of the podcast, Greenwich Letterpress! It's such a delight to discuss the Halloween episode of Beverly Hills 90210 season five with them. Discussed on this episode: the Día de los Muertos movie Coco, the podcast Running From Cops, and Courtney Stodden's sexy pumpkin patch photoshoot, about which the Daily Mail notes, "The pair were eventually asked to leave the patch by security after they received several complaints from members of the public who found Courtney's attire offensive and her behaviour of a sexual nature."

This episode is brought to you by The Cocoa Fondue Show. Watch the short before June 24 to help it win the Amazon Studios All Voices Film Festival!
